Message: [QUOTE="DESSERTLADY, post: 415452, member: 1240"] [b][PLAIN][Event 16] $10000 Pot Limit Omaha (Day 1)[/PLAIN][/b] [B][Event 16] $10000 Pot Limit Omaha (Day 1) Update[/B] [B]Highlights:[/B] [B]Sun Jul 09 11:49:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Pot-Limit Omaha[/B] Today marks the begining of the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event. We expect to see some of the biggest names in the game here today. Blinds will begin at $25-$25. [B]Sun Jul 09 12:21:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Greenstein and Forrest Play a Big One[/B] On a board of K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]9[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]6[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG], Ted Forrest thinks for some time before calling Barry Greenstein's $2,100 bet. Forrest checks the river 5[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG], and Greenstein bets $5,000. Forrest goes into the tank for quite some time before making the call. Greenstein turns over K-K-6-5 for top set which is good for the pot. [B]Sun Jul 09 12:56:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Phil Laak Eliminated[/B] Phil Laak has been eliminated early on in today's tournament. [B]Sun Jul 09 12:59:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Ted Forrest Eliminated[/B] Ted Forrest has been eliminated from today's Pot Limit Omaha tournament. [B]Sun Jul 09 13:01:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Vanessa Rousso Shows Up Late[/B] After busting out early on in the Ladies Event, Vanessa Rousso has decided to play in today's Pot Limit Omaha event. [B]Sun Jul 09 13:06:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Level 2[/B] The blinds have been raised to $25-$50. [B]Sun Jul 09 13:07:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Hachem Loses a Big One[/B] A player limps in under the gun, and Joe Hachem raises in late position to $250. Another world champion, Greg Raymer, makes the call in late position, as does the big blind and limper. The big blind checks the J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]9[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]6[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG] flop, the limper bets $900, Hachem calls and everyone else folds. On the 3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG] turn, the limper bets out $2,700 and Hachem thinks for some time before making the call. The limper pauses for a moment on the 3[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG] river before pushing his remaining $3,575 into the pot. It's possible that card may have given Hachem a flush as he makes the call, but his opponent has nines full of threes for the $15,350 win. Hachem is left with $5,300. [B]Sun Jul 09 13:16:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]Doyle Brunson Doubles Through Gavin Smith[/B] On a flop of A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]8[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG], Smith bets $3,700 and Brunson pushes all-in for his remaining $3,875. Before calling Smith asks, "How did I let this pot get so big?" and shows K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG]K[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/spade.gif[/IMG]J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]J[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG] for a set of Kings. Brunson shows A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/diamond.gif[/IMG]A[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]Q[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/heart.gif[/IMG]4[IMG]http://www.cardplayer.com/images/common/suits/club.gif[/IMG] for a higher set. The turn and river bring are 5d and 2h respectively which give no help to Smith's hand. Brunson's set of Aces are good for the double-up. Smith is left with $850 and Brunson has $20,300. [B]Sun Jul 09 13:33:00 PDT 2006[/B] [B]European Influence[/B] The World Cup is currently down to penalty kicks for the title. Due to the overwhelming European influence in today's tournament, the tournament director has paused the event so that the players can watch the soccer match.

Sunar bets out $5,000 and both Hellmuth and Vos fold. Sunar rakes a healthy pot and brings his chips count to $18,900.
